« Recall options market moving to Arnold | | Republican Party directors call emergency meeting »

September 27, 2003

What's next, an endorsement?

Final two paragraphs of a story posted today at CNN.Com:

"Saturday, Bustamante made the unusual move of praising one of the Republican contenders. Bustamante talked up McClintock, who has been taking votes from Schwarzenegger and could spoil the actor's chances if Davis were recalled -- thus allowing Bustamante a chance to win.

"'The one who's really been moving in this race has been Tom McClintock,' Bustamante said at a campaign stop in Los Angeles. 'Tom has done a good job to get up there. ... Tom has a really strong message, and there's a group of people out there who strongly believe in his values.'"

Thanks for the tip from reader JT.
